LONDON - eTravelWire -- C&M Travel Recruitment has announced that Managing Director and minority shareholder Barbara (Basia) Kolosinska and Sales Director Duncan Tingle have completed a management buyout of the leading travel recruitment agency.

The pair have purchased the remaining share capital from former Chairman Angus Chisholm, who founded the company in 1998, meaning they will own 100 per cent of the organisation.

Joining C&M as Recruitment Consultants in 1999 and 2002 respectively, Barbara Kolosinska and Duncan Tingle have worked their way up through the company, and have both spent the vast majority of their careers at C&M. Chisholm will remain with the agency as a Non-Executive Director.

Since forming 26 years ago, C&M has become the UK's most established travel recruitment consultancy, filling more than 20,000 roles in the industry. Working with all sectors, disciplines and levels of the travel industry, C&M's clients, business partners and candidates can continue to expect exceptional service following the buyout.
